José Paulo Bisol (22 October 1928 – 26 June 2021) was a Brazilian politician and judge. Bisol most notably served as the vice presidential running mate of Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, known as Lula, in the 1989 presidential election.[1] Bisol was originally set to serve as Lula's running mate in the 1994 presidential election, but was replaced by Aloizio Mercadante.[2][3] Bisol was famous for being an opponent of corruption, and was said to have had a "Mr. Clean" image that was damaged by accusations surrounding his career as a judge during the 1994 campaign.[4]

Career[edit]

Throughout his career, Bisol served as a member of the Brazilian Democratic Movement (MDB), the Brazilian Socialist Party (PSB), and the Workers' Party,[5] which he remained a member of. Born in Porto Alegre, Bisol served in a variety of positions representing his home state of Rio Grande do Sul,[6] including as a member of the Senate[7][8] and the Chamber of Deputies.[9] Additionally, Bisol served as state Secretary of Justice and Security of Rio Grande do Sul.[10]

Later in his career, Bisol emerged as a critic of Lula, accusing him of being a neoliberal.[11] Additionally, Bisol was outspoken against the centre-right presidency of Michel Temer.[12] Bisol was a graduate of the Pontifical Catholic University of Rio Grande do Sul, where he studied law.[13]

Personal life[edit]

Bisol suffered from kidney problems, having to endure hemodialysis sessions three times a week as of 2018.[14] He was the brother of prominent Brazilian linguist Leda Bisol, who is primarily known for his contribution to the phonology of Brazilian Portuguese.[15]

Death[edit]

Bisol died on 26 June 2021, in Porto Alegre.[16]
